Stress isn’t unavoidable unfortunately, but it is manageable. Being exposed to stress in this modern age still triggers our body’s natural ‘fight or flight’ response; the blood flow to certain muscles increases adrenaline but in turn decreases our brain function. This leads to the inability to ‘think straight’. If we are kept in this state of stress for prolonged periods it can be extremely detrimental to our health.

The key way to manage stress is to identify the issues as early as possible so that actions can be taken and your stress can be conquered!
